The Vasco coach explains that he saw the French midfielder uncomfortable with the team’s situation in the standings, but that the dynamics have already changed
Vasco president Pedrinho has made a revelation about midfielder Dimitri Payet, as well as explaining the “problems” he has had with John Textor, owner of Botafogo’s SAF.
According to the agent, in an interview with “Canal do Igor Rodrigues” on YouTube, aired this Sunday (8), the Frenchman was “very sad” during the team’s bad phase of the season. But for him, the star’s appearance has already changed.
“He (Payet) is very superior. When I had the first contacts I noticed that he was very sad. I had a first conversation right after the match against Flamengo (6-1 defeat), in the dressing room we spoke for more than 40 minutes. minutes What bothered him was the position of our team, as he would like to fight for better things, he started to let off steam and we showed him that it was the beginning of a new construction when things started to improve, with the arrival of. Coutinho also changed face”, he said.
Pedrinho hits John Textor again
Pedrinho also took the opportunity to talk about the backstage fight with John Textor. The owner of SAF do Botafogo mentioned the Cruz-Maltino club again in a recent interview – and remember. The Vasco representative later went public to respond to the North American.
He explained that the meeting mentioned by Textor is monthly and that the clubs do not decide anything in it. In this case, the Board meets to discuss ideas that will only later be evaluated by the CBF, the main body of Brazilian football.
“The CNC is a National Council of Clubs, a consultative body to make suggestions to the CBF, not to make decisions. It makes suggestions and the CBF makes decisions. Vasco will not be excluded from any debate on football. These meetings are held monthly and different aspects are discussed. Financial fair play was one of the topics. It really scared me that (John) Textor spoke, because Textor never spoke about it, I defend Botafogo, and not with Vasco. As long as I am president, every time he mentions me or Vasco, he will have a corresponding response. He doesn’t know 1% of what happens in São Januário, all the false things that happen get a response. It bothers me because I never did anything for him,” he said.
